Hailing the country's success in achieving its goods export target of USD 400 billion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserted on Wednesday that this is a key milestone in India's 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat' journey.
'India set an ambitious target of $400 Billion of goods exports & achieves this target for the first time ever. I congratulate our farmers, weavers, MSMEs, manufacturers, exporters for this success. This is a key milestone in our Aatmanirbhar Bharat journey. #LocalGoesGlobal,' Modi tweeted.
He posted a graphics of India achieving the highest ever exports target nine days ahead of the intended deadline.
Responding to PM Modi's tweet, Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal said that the "Make in India lion" is roaring aloud across the world.
"PM Narendra Modi's clarion call of Local Goes Global is a reality. Under your visionary leadership, India has scripted history by achieving an ambitious target of $400 Billion of goods export within a single year. Make in India lion is roaring aloud across the world," Goyal tweeted.
